Volume 2: Entering the Ghost Feast Verse 54: A Call for Help
"Hu boy, what's going on in the middle of the night?" It's past midnight, Yan Hunshan doesn't seem to be sleeping, and he picked up Hu Xi's phone as soon as possible.
"Something happened......" Hu Xi hurriedly told Yan Hunshan what Zhang Su told on the phone.
"Are you sure he's not drunk?" After listening to Hu Xi's report, Yan Hunshan asked incredulously.
"Well, it doesn't sound like that." Hu Xi replied.
"Then hurry up and contact the Yang brothers and Lin Yan, and let Jia Lei drive to pick us up, Jia Shuo's means may be able to save Lu Sen first, Lin Yan will do medical emergency, don't delay any longer!" Yan Hunshan said sharply.
Hu Xi quickly hung up the phone with a "hmm", called the Yang brothers and Lin Yan one after another, briefly told Zhang Su and Lu Sen what happened, and also informed the three of them of Yan Huishan's instructions, the three of them originally planned to complain that Hu Xi was disturbing in the middle of the night, but as soon as they heard that someone had broken into the ghost banquet by mistake, almost all of them got up directly from the bed, got dressed, Yang Jialei went to start the car, and the others were on standby at home, waiting for the car to pick up.
At midnight, the road has long been lonely, except for the taxi driver who runs the night road, there are almost no other vehicles, Yang Jialei drove the company's van, I don't know what means were used, the speed of the van has already exceeded the limit that the speed disc can show, in the dark road like a rocket launched on the ground, it has not stopped when it encounters a red light, leaving a pale yellow afterimage on the dark street.
From receiving Hu Xi's call to picking up several people scattered in all directions of Qicheng, Yang Jialei only took about twenty minutes, and it would take at least a few hours for ordinary cars to drive at the highest speed, obviously Yang Jialei and his car were a little special.
"I'll go, this is the second time I've seen Brother Jia Lei drive like this, but I feel even more shocked than the first time I saw it." Hu Xi got into the car after Yang Jiashuo, and then went to pick up Yan Hunshan and Lin Yan, and the car was rushing towards Fengcheng Lingu at a rocket-like speed.
"That is, I was shocked when I drove, this car is one of the largest horcruxes developed by Old Man Zhong, and with the blessing of my Wind Resisting Soul Technique, there is only one car in the world that can run at this speed." Yang Jialei said proudly.
"Okay, don't be poor, have you prepared everything I asked you to prepare?" Just as Hu Xi and Yang Jialei were talking, Yan Hunshan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, spoke.
"Ready, Elder Yan, don't worry, as long as Lu Sen's soul doesn't disappear completely, I can use the Soul Banner to recruit his soul back, but I don't know what it will look like after being summoned." Yang Jiashuo was the first to answer.
"Well, what about Lin Yan?" Yan Hunshan nodded, and asked Lin Yan instead.
"I brought the best Soul Gathering Scatter and Spiritual Cultivation Liquid, and I also brought the Rebirth Soul Fruit that I practiced for a long time with my soul power some time ago, as long as I can recall one-third of Lu Sengo's soul, I am confident that he will be restored." Lin Yan replied.
"Okay, Hu Xi, you can show the way, where is Zhang Su in Fengcheng Forest Valley now?" Yan Hunshan finished asking Yang Jiashuo and Lin Yan, and then asked Hu Xi.
"Near the western wall of Fengcheng Forest Valley, the location he sent me is in the middle of the wall." Hu Xi replied.
"Okay, sit down, I'm going to drive fast." After Hu Xi finished reporting the position, Yang Jialei's car speed actually increased a lot, and the speed made several people sitting in the car raise their hearts to their throats, and even Yan Lao, who was sitting in the co-pilot, unconsciously pulled the armrest next to the seat, as if he was also a little nervous.
Six or seven minutes later, Zhang Su, who was squatting in the corner, heard a "stab" sound, and looked up to see a dilapidated van suddenly flashed in front of him, he knew the car, thinking that it was the only car of the Qicheng Soul Hunting Company, although he had only sat in it when he went to the Heavenly Soul Castle, but the dilapidated car shell had not changed much from the original, so he recognized it at a glance, but the speed faster than the train surprised him slightly.
The van began to brake sharply not far from Zhang Su, the buttocks of the car were raised high from back to front, and the car flew into the air as a whole, and after two 360-degree rotations in the air, it landed firmly opposite Zhang Su, which shows that Yang Jialei's control and control of the distance are quite accurate.
After the car stopped for two or three minutes, the door on the back seat of the car was finally opened, and Hu Xi and the other three people covered their mouths and bent over to rush down from the car, holding on to the wall around Zhang Su and vomiting constantly, as if they had eaten a bad stomach.
Zhang Su squatted under the wall, and when he saw the three people rushing towards him, he quickly got up, and avoided the three people who were vomiting from afar, and when he pulled away from it, he found that the people who vomited were Hu Xi, Lin Yan, and Yang Jiashuo, whom he had only met a few times but also knew.
"How many of you can do it?" Yan Hunshan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, also jumped out of the car, stretched, moved his body, and mocked the retching three.
"I'll go, who drove the car to unload the force by flipping in the air? Brother Jia Lei, if you want to do this kind of dangerous action, you have to tell us in advance, good guy, this tossing and collision, my stomach is weightless to the throat. Hu Xi calmed his tumbling stomach a little, and complained with a face full of grievances.
"Yes, yes, you have to say this in advance, Brother Jia Lei, it's the first time I've seen you drive like this, at least give me some mental preparation." Lin Yan, who has always been relatively cold, also complained.
"Okay, okay, I know, but these two little guys can't stand it, Jiashuo, why are you throwing up? You've been on my express train a few times. With the complaints of the two, Yang Jialei also came out of the driver's cab, scratched his head with a wry smile, and turned his face to ask Yang Jiashuo.
"I, gag! I got motion sickness, I was in a hurry just now, I forgot to take motion sickness medicine, and I couldn't help it when the car flipped in the air. Yang Jiashuo vomited more than Hu Xi and Lin Yan, and replied weakly.
"You ...... reason for this," Yang Jialei replied to Yang Jiashuo's answer in disbelief.
"Okay, it's important to save people, hurry up and find the suspicious boy." Yan Hunshan urged.
"No need to look for it, no need to look for it, I'm here!" Zhang Su shouted loudly, and his figure came out of the back of the van.
"That's right, I'll just say that I stopped when I saw the figure of Zhang Su's little brother before I parked." Yang Jialei looked at Zhang Wei with a smile.
"It's good to be here, tell me what is going on between you and Lu Sen, where is Lu Sen now?" Yan Hunshan walked up to Zhang Su with a serious face and asked sharply.
Zhang Su didn't dare to look directly at the five people who came around, slowly lowered his head, and told him and Lu Sen about the search for the overturned ghost from beginning to end, from the first thing that the two of them got information from the mouth of the bounty ghost, to the matter of the two of them meeting to explore the Fengcheng Forest Valley at night, and then to the matter of falling into the ghost banquet trap set by the overturned ghost, and how he escaped under the cover of Lu Sen, all of them were told to Yan Hunshan and others in 1510.
"Yiyuan, right, Zhang Su quickly led the way, Jia Lei stayed to watch the car so that he could answer at any time, and the others followed Zhang Su, now we will set off to Yiyuan." Yan Hunshan commanded.
Zhang Su heard Yan Huishan's instructions, nodded quickly, climbed the dirt slope that could climb over the wall, jumped down, and entered the Fengcheng Forest Valley again, just as he looked up at the brick and stone wall he had just climbed, he suddenly heard a muffled sound in front of him and remembered, and then saw that there was a small hole in the size of a person on the temporary brick and stone wall, and the broken bricks and soil crackled and scattered all over the ground, Yan Hunshan walked in from the temporary hole, and the others followed.
Zhang Su swallowed deeply, continued to be in front of the guide, and rushed towards Yiyuan again, Zhang Su was cautious throughout the whole process, for fear that he would be calculated by the overturned ghost and a group of imps on the road, he prayed that Lu Sen was still alive, but no matter how worried Lu Sen's safety, Zhang Su didn't dare to be careless, he didn't want to hurt Yan Hunshan and them again because of his carelessness.
Yan Hunshan didn't speak all the way, he followed closely behind Zhang Su, his powerful soul power dispersed to the surroundings, not only could he perceive the surrounding souls, but also used his soul power to form a soul power barrier within a certain range, guarding everyone including Zhang Su in this soul power barrier, in the soul master realm, only those who can achieve this level can only enter the soul ancestor level, obviously Yan Lao has the strength of the soul ancestor level.
It was not far from the entrance to Yiyuan, and Zhang Su did not move quietly and slowly this time, so it only took three or four minutes for several of them to come to the door of Yiyuan, and looked at the first floor of Yiyuan through the glass bead curtain, which was already empty, only Lu Sen's body was lying quietly on the ground, obviously losing its vitality.
"Be vigilant, I'll go in first, you guys be on guard behind me, and pay attention to all soul reactions." Yan Lao commanded with great experience.
After speaking, Yan Lao opened the soul power barrier and walked into the Yiyuan first, Zhang Su and the others followed, everyone did not let the soul out of the body, but they all emitted the soul power, and continued to scan and probe in the Yiyuan, checking the abnormal soul power reaction, a few seconds later, Zhang Su and the five rushed to the place where Lu Sen's body fell to the ground, Yan Lao was in front of him to protect the law, Zhang Su took the lead in lying down and hugged Lu Sen's body, and released his soul power to find out if there was still a residual soul in Lu Sen's body, wanting to seek a ray of life for Lu Sen, As a result, a moment later, Zhang Su showed a desperate expression, buried his head in the body of Lu Sen that had become cold, and sobbed, tears could not stop flowing.
"It seems that the ghost feast is over, except for two ghasts on the roof of the third floor who are eating an injured ghast, there are no other dead souls in this Yi Yuan." It was Yang Jiashuo who spoke, he seemed to have used some special soul detection technique to probe the upper and lower layers of Yiyuan, and his soul power was collected into his body, and he said to Yan Lao.
"Well, I also found out, Hu Xi, you go and deal with the three evil spirits first, pay attention to the soul traps left over from the ghost banquet, and come back quickly after you are done." Elder Yan nodded and ordered at Hu Xi.
Hu Xi nodded and responded, the body soul technique was turned on, Zhang Su didn't know what kind of body soul technique Hu Xi was cultivating, after opening it, he was as light as a swallow, and his feet ran wildly on the ground, three steps and two steps climbed the stairs of Yiyuan, and disappeared at the staircase of Yiyuan in the blink of an eye.
"Jia Shuo, can Lu Sen's soul be recalled?" Seeing Hu Xi go upstairs, Yan Hunshan asked Yang Jiashuo.
"There is nothing that can be done, although there are still fragments of Lu Sen's soul around here, but there is no large piece of soul that can be used as the foundation for conjuring souls, even if it is a conjuring flag, it will not work, even if there is half an arm, I will try my best to recruit him back half of his body, and when the time comes, plus Yan Meizi's healing soul technique, maybe I can save Lu Sen back, but now it seems that it is impossible to achieve, Lu Sen's soul has been completely devoured, and he no longer has the basis for conjuring spirits." Yang Jiashuo calmly stated the facts.
"Where's Yeoniko?" Yan Hunshan continued to ask.
"If Brother Jiashuo can't help it, I can't help it, when a person's soul is more than one-third, I can only use the Rebirth Soul Fruit and Gathering Soul Scatter to cultivate and continue, and the spiritual sense can be used to pull Lu Sen's backup spiritual sense two months ago, but now Brother Jiashuo can't even recruit the soul, and I can't do anything." Lin Yan replied.
Zhang Su listened, suppressing his grief and not letting himself cry out loud, he didn't know what happened to Lu Sen after he escaped, but from the conversation between Yang Jiashuo and Lin Yan, he learned that Lu Sen's soul was eaten and eaten by those dead souls and evil ghosts, and the human body was unconscious after death, but the spirit consciousness will continue to exist with the soul until the soul is completely devoured, the spirit sense can feel the pain from the soul, Zhang Su can imagine the scene where Lu Sen was bitten by dozens of ghosts before he was completely devoured, That kind of pain, that kind of pain, is by no means something that ordinary people can endure.
The more Zhang Su thought about it, the more he was afraid, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the world of the soul master was so terrifying, this was the first time he felt real fear after stepping into the soul master realm, he even imagined that he was bitten by dozens of ghosts after he failed to escape, the pain was estimated to be more painful than the ancient car cracking torture, he now understood what Lu Sen had experienced in order to protect him at that time, Zhang Su hugged Lu Sen in his arms tighter.
"Have you found a way to restore Luxembourge?" After just over a minute, Hu Xi came back from the third floor of Yiyuan, holding half a soul hand in his hand and asked.
"No, it's all detritus, and the spirit banner can't do anything." Looking at Hu Xi who came back, Yang Jiashuo shook his head and said.
"I have half of Luxengo's soul hand here, see if you can use it, the three ghasts who fought upstairs just now are robbing this." Hu Xi shook the half soul hand in his hand again and asked.
Zhang Su raised his head, looked at the soul hand in Hu Xi's hand, and then looked at Yang Jiashuo, thinking that things might take a turn for the better.
"Show me, well, it still doesn't work, the soul fragments are too small, and the soul power has been almost lost, and it can't be recruited, if you forcibly recruit it, it may come out of a strange-shaped ghast, which is a precedent." Yang Jiashuo took the half of the soul hand in Hu Xi's hand, examined it back and forth, and finally shook his head and sighed.
After listening to Yang Jiashuo's words, Zhang Su's hopeful eyes drooped again, he stared at Lu Sen's face, remembered the scene of meeting Lu Sen for the first time, remembered the scene where Lu Sen persuaded him to join the soul hunting company, remembered the scene when he came back from the rookie training base three months ago, Lu Sen taught him to capture the dead soul, remembered Lu Sen's melancholy but calm appearance, his eyes were full of crystal tears again, and he couldn't see Lu Sen in front of him clearly.
"So, alas." After listening to Yang Jiashuo's explanation, Hu Xi could only sigh helplessly.
"Okay, since the person is gone, you can follow us back to the company first with Lu Xiaozi's body." Seeing that Lu Sen was completely dissipated and had lost hope of life, Yan Hunshan did not show a sad expression, but simply shook his head and said coldly to Zhang Su, who was kneeling on the ground and holding Lu Sen's corpse.
Zhang Su grabbed Lu Sen's body again, raised his head to look at Yan Hunshan, and begged Yan Hunshan with tears in his eyes: "Save him!" Please, find a way to save him! ”
With Zhang Su's hysterical begging, Hu Xi and Lin Yan had already turned their backs, secretly rubbing their wet red eyes, while Yang Jiashuo walked aside, leaning on a leaky window in Yiyuan, looking up at the starry sky outside the window, only Yan Lao did not move, just simply lowered his head and met Zhang Su's eyes with his eyes.
Five seconds later, Zhang Su's body knocked away the bead curtain at the entrance of Yiyuan without warning, and flew out of Yiyuan, and when Zhang Su got up from the ground with a severely painful lower abdomen, he saw the angry Yan Hunshan striding in front of Zhang Su, and Zhang Su's body was kicked out of Yiyuan by Yan Hunshan.
"Old Yan ......" Hu Xi and Lin Yan heard the sound of Zhang Su being kicked away, and quickly turned around, and when they saw the angry Yan Huishan, they immediately understood the reason, and the two wanted to persuade in unison.
"Don't say anything, Hu Xi, Lin Yan, you two carry Lu Sen's body to the car first!" Yan Hunshan didn't give Hu Xi and Lin Yan a chance to speak, and directly interrupted.
Hu Xi and Lin Yan heard Yan Hunshan's words, and took back the words that came to their mouths, their voices stopped abruptly, and they silently lifted Lu Sen's body according to Yan Hunshan's instructions, and walked towards the location where Yang Jialei parked, and Yang Jiashuo was also protecting the Dharma beside him.
Not long after Hu Xi and the three left, Yan Hunshan was already standing in front of Zhang Su, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Su, and he said in a cold voice: "Now you know that you are crying?" You hurt Lucerne and still have the face to cry? The company's regulations dare to turn a deaf ear and hunt souls without accepting the reward, how capable do you think you are? You can quibble that it was Lucerne who proposed it, but would he dare to come to this place alone without your consent? You can be regarded as a person who has been in the company for half a year, why the company lacks manpower, do you not know in your heart? Dare to sneak in to find a ghost-level revenant? Got a big deal? Save him? Even taking your life out now won't save him! ”
Zhang Su covered his aching stomach, lying on the ground and listening to Yan Hunshan's scolding, there were more tears in his eyes, how could he not know what Yan Hunshan said, if he could use his life to save Lu Sen, he would be willing, but he knew in his heart that as long as the first step was wrong, it was too late to regret it when he fell into the abyss and was shattered, he wanted to save Lu Sen, in addition to the two factors of friendship and kindness, he was still trying to make his heart have some comfort.
"Get up if you think about it, you are the party, the trial will come to the company, and Lu Sen's aftermath also needs to be prepared, we don't have time to spend it with you here!" Seeing Zhang Su lying on the ground crying, Yan Hunshan calmed down his anger a little, said in a soothing tone, and then walked towards the parking place.
Yan Hunshan's foot made Zhang Su sober up a lot, Zhang Su covered his aching stomach and trembled and got up from the ground, put away his crying, followed behind Yan Hunshan with his head down, and didn't say a word.
